Strict comparison for $C^*$-algebras arising from Almost finite groupoids


Abstract in English

In this paper we show that for an almost finite minimal ample groupoid $G$, its reduced $mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $C_r^*(G)$ has real rank zero and strict comparison even though $C_r^*(G)$ may not be nuclear in general. Moreover, if we further assume $G$ being also second countable and non-elementary, then its Cuntz semigroup ${rm Cu}(C_r^*(G))$ is almost divisible and ${rm Cu}(C_r^*(G))$ and ${rm Cu}(C_r^*(G)otimes mathcal{Z})$ are canonically order-isomorphic, where $mathcal{Z}$ denotes the Jiang-Su algebra.
